solarbirdThe big dog:
The majority of graduating(!) American college students can't read an editorial for content, compare credit card offers, or intelligently engage in other, similar, common tasks. The sad part is, this is an improvement. As in, this is better. God. (Pew Charitable Trust study information here, including the full report.)
The little dog:
Very, very, very, very unhappy with BSG 2.13/Epiphanies. Even aside from the whole bogosity of the cure for the President's cancer, dramatically, that whole story decision made no fucking sense. They didn't pull the trigger when they needed to, and that's a very bad indicator for the entire rest of the series; it says they'll set something really big up and then blanch away at the last second. That's really bad when the best part about the entire series is that they're willing to pull that fucking trigger.
They've gone soft in the head on us, and I don't like it.
